Cold Air Intake questions

Thinking about it.
What's the opinion of the better ones?
Whose has the least air whistle?
Worth the $$$ for the HP increase?
I watched a Phastek installation video and he disconnected the battery. Is that really necessary or is it just a good habit. The reason I ask is that on the 2017's, there is no door to the battery. You have to remove the right side trunk interior. Not the worst of problems cause I did it for my battery tender pigtail installation but I'd rather not have to do it.
Thanks.

Easiest route is to just pull the correct fuse. I can look that up today.

Rotofab has no whistle and has shown legitimate gains from independent tests. The value will increase as your modification list increases.

Here's my recent thread on my Cold Air Inductions intake. I stacked everything against it to see what it would gain. I am very pleased with the results: http://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=473466

I just knew I didn't have one. I went out & checked again. Nope. Then bingo, I felt a seam. There it was. Thanks.

Thanks for the vote of confidence! Roto-fab will never settle for "good enough". We will continue to go above and beyond for our fellow Camaro enthusiasts!

If anyone has any questions or concerns about our system, I would be glad to help.

I had the CAI when I first started my mods, mine never whistled and loved the look. I switched to Mikes Rotofab when I went supercharged, love my Fab also and fits my needs with my Heartbeat. Quality products for sure.
